Andrew Quarless attended Holy Trinity High School on Long Island until his junior year when he transferred to Uniondale High School, where he had his greatest season before entering Penn State. After winning the Super Bowl he returned to Uniondale where he was honored by Uniondale Ave being renamed "Andrew Quarless Way."

Quarless had a breakout season as a true freshman in 2006.[2] He was pushed into Joe Paterno in a game against Wisconsin, which broke Paterno's leg.[3] Success in the 2007 season was limited due to suspensions and loss of his starting position at tight end to Mickey Shuler, Jr.[4] Quarless saw limited playing time in 2008 until the Illinois game when he started in the place of an injured Shuler and caught a key 4th-quarter touchdown.[2][5] He caught the game-winning catch in the 2010 East-West Shrine Game.

Quarless was drafted by the Packers in Round 5, pick 23 being 154th player picked overall in the draft. He made his first NFL career touchdown against the Minnesota Vikings. At the end of the 2010 regular season he had picked up 238 yards. He had 21 receptions averaging 11.3 yards per catch.

In 2011, he had three receptions for 36 yards and was the primary backup to Jermichael Finley. His role was a blocker. He suffered a season-ending knee injury in a 4th quarter kickoff return in the 38-35 win against the New York Giants on Sunday December 4, 2011. He was placed on injured reserve the following week.[6] Quarless sat out the entire 2012-2013 season.
